Design a digital 3D model of underwater sculpture to be submerged in the Mediterranean sea

Registration Deadline: Sep 30, 2024; Submission Deadline: Sep 30, 2024 About the projectWe want to celebrate cetaceans in the Mediterranean, especially within the Pelagos Sanctuary, a protected area between France, Italy, and Monaco. Home to many marine species, including Fin and Sperm whales, this region's cetaceans face threats from human activities.Our project merges marine conservation with art by installing a submerged sculpture off the coast of France, creating a free, publicly accessible underwater art exhibit. This immersive experience allows visitors to appreciate the beauty of marine life, learn about the challenges cetaceans face, and discover ways to contribute to their protection.ObjectivesShowcase the beauty and vulnerability of Mediterranean cetaceansFoster appreciation for marine lifeRaise awareness of the risks cetaceans face.Design the sculpture in digital 3D format! Design brief Target audienceVisitors to the beach (including children), swimmers, snorkelers. The priority should therefore be how the sculpture looks from above looking down.LocationLe Pradet, France.Water depth4-6 metres.Sculpture dimensionsMax occupied space should be 5x20 metres. Maximum 2 metre height.SafetyAvoid sharp edges or small gaps where humans or marine animals could get caught.Animation/videoEncouraged but not required (images of the sculpture from different angles are sufficient).How to enter:Send your digital 3D model to contact@blue.ngo with the following information:- Email subject: Design competition - First name - Last name - Birthday: DD/MM/YYYY - Country of residence - Current occupation- Short explanation of your designDeadline:September 30, 2024https://www.blue.ngo/design-competitionRead the full post on Bustler
